Dr. W. E. Britton, the state entomologist, was working hard to exterminate the pest. The spraying apparatus is in use in Thompson. Secretary Healey said so long as the farmers did not co-operate in the work of destroying the insect there was not sanguine hope that it ‘would be exterminated. The individual efforts of some people were nullified by the indifference of their neighbors who did nothing to destroy the larvae. FUNERALS. Joseph Durman.

JUMPED T Unknown Man a Suicide Sunday Afternoon—Probably a Weaver Aged About 35—Undressed Before He Jumped __ in Below Laurel Hill Bridge—Body Was Recovered-in - About Half an Hour. An unknown man, probably a.| weaver and about. 35 years old, com- mitted suicide Sunday about half an| hour after noon by jumping into the Shetucket river from the rocks on the northerly bank just below the Laurel Hill bridge. The body was recovered about half an hour later just a_short distancesbelow. where he jumped in. Before plunging into the water, the man took off all his clothing but his underclothes, leaving it piled up on the bank near the buttresses of the old bridge at this point just a short distance above the New Haven road freight shed. Policeman John.Irish, who had been told by Benjamin Friedman and a painter named O'Connor, that a man was undressing on the river bank, was hurrying down the railroad track back of ‘the Boston store when he saw the man on_the rocks some distance below him and the next minute the stranger was in the river. After his plunge into the water, he came up once, floating out towards the center of the stream, but then turned and seemed to be making an effort to get back.to land; but the policeman saw him sink almost at once. Medical examiner, Dr. Rush W. Kimball, who was called about half an hour later after the body had’been recovered learned that the man had been prevented by Mr. Freldman and Mr, O'Connell from jumping into the water from the Osgzood dock just be- fore they caught sight of him undress- ing near the river bank. They sald that he was exidently somewhat in- toxicated. Recovery of the body was made-by INTO THE SH ETUCKET Samuel and Antony Petrosky, who Were out on the harbor in a boat They:went to-their homs.on-the-West Side, ‘secured some hooks.and brought the lLbody» up-after-abouthalf.anshour'’s waorl In the .clothes that were left on the bank’and taken in’charge by po- liceman Irish were found a basgage check and some rallroad fare rebate checks that would seem to_indicate travel from Norwodd Central to this city and may serve to locate where theiman came from and ‘who,he:is. In one of his pockets was a weaver's pick. There are.three:fare rebatexchecks, one from Norwood Central to'Frank- lin, Mass., another from Franklin to Putnam, and the third from Putnam to Norwich. This one shows that he arrived in this city on Saturday. The Efig‘“ check™is from “Norwood-Cen- ral.

The body was taken charge of by Under- Hourigan. The man was about. 35:years-old. 5 feet, 8 inches in helght, about 170 pounds, brown eyes, dark halr, slight- iy ourly, smooth face. He was wearing a light gray check suit, coat, vest and trousers, with the trousers newly creased. There were no papers of any kind, other than those mentioned, about his clothes, that would serve to furnish a clew to the man's identity and no one was found here who had seen anything of him through Saturday or Sunday. TEMPERANCE ADDRESS AT FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH Mrs. Edna Young Reed Spoke Upon John Barleycorn on a Hike. At the evening service at the First Baptist church _Sunday, Mrs. Edna Young Reed of Clarendon, Pa., spoke upon Temperance under the subject, John Barleycorn on a Hike. Speaking earnestly in a clear voice, she held the close attention of her audience throughout. She said in part: There has.been wonderful progress in the world of reform in the last few years.. Eighteen states have voted out the saloon evil, 63 of the leading mag- azines of the country have barred out all advertisements of alcoholic drinks, MRS. EDNA YOUNG REED. practically all railroads have barred liquor from employes, and manufactur- ers, in order to obtain more efficient workmen have demanded total absti- nence. The advocates of the saloon contend that it helps busine; The speaker asked “whose business does it help?” She replied it helps the busi- ness of the hospital, the rescue mission, the jails, the orphanages, the peniten taries, the undertaker and grave-dig- ge he said that license of the saloon was conirary to the clauses of the pre- amble, the purpose for which govern- ment was_established in other words that the licensing of evil is unconsti- tutional The liquor licenses pay to the United States government anhually 200 mil- lions. The cost of this to repair the evil is two billions. Besides this the loon gives paupers and criminals enough to fill 50 penitentiaries and 2000 Jails. John Barleycorn realizes he has not a leg left to stand on and is sending out fabrications to mislead voters, quoting untruths from the immortal Lincoln, and giving untruths concern- ing prohibition states. Kansas stands in the center, of the nation, a living example of what prohibition does. The speaker lived there several years in a country seat town and the jail had but one inmate in all that time and he came from Nebraska. In 85 coun- ties of Kansas no idiots, in 35, no paupers, in 65, no jail birds. It is the richest state in the Union per caplta. Men_say prohibition cannot prohibit, but it does prohibit in Kansas. She closed with this illustration: A test for sanity is sometimes perfected in this way: The patient is placed in a rocm with an open faucet and given a mop to mop up the floor. If he turns off the faucet and mops then he is pronounced sane, but if he continues to mop without turning off the faucet then he is pronounced nsane. She said, I can see a great faucet, pour- ing ‘down crioples, imbeciles, insane, criminals and we hurry them to the ions, hospitals and Jails, and down pour, hundreds and thousands, and we kedp mopping the floor. Can wa not with one mighty hand all take hold and turn off this great and mighty fau- cet and spare the hosts of people marching on the way to ruin? SPANISH WAR VETERANS HAD AN OUTING P Enjoyed a Day at Comrade John A. Hagberg's Place. Major R. S. Griswold command, No. 4, 'had a good attendance of its com- rades on Sunday for the outing of the United Spanish War Veterans at John /¢ Hagberg’s at Mohegan, and all en- joved themselves. The chowder put out by Walter Robinson had it on any- thing they ever had when out in the service. It was even better it was declared, than the oyster stew that was served them at Camp Meade, Penn., in 1898. Sports were held and the winners were awarded suitable prizes. The married men won the baseball game. The foot race was won by George A. Turner with Iver Olsson” second; the potato race by George A. Turner first, and Charles Shalkbiski second; shooting won by | Herbert Burdick first, and Iver Os- son second. It was voted a good time and everyone is eager. for the next AGREEMENT ON NEW WAGE SCHEDULE. Signed -By Shore Line Electric Offi- cials and Trolleymen. Through the signing of a new schedule agreement Saturday at 12:30 between the officials of the Shore Line Electric Railway system and the com- mittee of sixteen representing the trolley employes union, the threatened strike of the trolleymen is averted. The agreement is for a year, dating from the signing, this being one of the concessions which the company agreed to as they wanted a two year agreement. The document was signed by Presi- dent Robert W. Perkins and General Manager Samuel Anderson for the company and 16 members of the gen- eral_trolleymen's committee, _includ- ing four members of each of the four divisions, The company takes away the meal ticket privilege, but will serve lunches whenever necessary. The ten cents extra for overtime is also taken away. The new and old scales follow: ola. New. 23 One year . Two years 24 Three years .... 25 Four years ..... 26 Five years L. 26% 27 Six vears and thereafter 28% 29 The trolley employes asked for a considerably larger increase in pay but the answer of the company was that business conditions would not al- low of any greater advance than that shown above which-is an average of .054 of a cent more than the previous scale. While the trolley employes took a vote in favor of a strike the feeling prevalled that a strike would not actually be resorted to and it was understood that there was consider- able division on the question particu- larly on the Norwich and Westerly and Groton and Stonington divisions where the vote was against a strike. SETTLEMENTS MADE IN COMMON PLEAS CASES Session of Court Saturday Had No Business. Two cases assigned for trial in the court of common pleas in New London Saturday have been settled.

Smeker Started Blaze in Mattress— Bypkdraft Blew Isinglass From the Stove. A man smoking in bed and setting the mattress on firs at the tenement of Wiladyslaw Wyezkowsgy at 116 High street was the cause of a fire alarm Saturday night at 10.05 from Box 13 at the corner of High and Thames street. The apparatus arrived on the run only to find that the mattress had been pulled out onto the verandah where a couple of pails of water put out the blaze. The firemen from the West Side station diminished the chance of more fire by throwing the mattress to the ground. The house owned by Mrs. Wilhelmina Gro- dostzke. Sunday morning at 10:06 a still alarm called the firemen to the apartments of Mrs. Sarah Kolowsky in the house No. 5 High street, owned by Jacob Gordor A back draft had blown the isinglass out of the stove, filling the house with smoke while the fami- Iy was away.

McElroy took his text from St. Mathew 298:19,20 and bis theme was Education, as made known to us thrdugh “the words from the lips of our divine Lord. ‘The mission entrusted to the.church by Christ was Education in its broad- est terms and we are unable to pass through life without His continued assistance as teach and guide, said Rev. McElroy. The:church has hown itself as a vigorous promoter of all that is true in education, an opponent of all that is false, She established sohools throughout the world. The in- stitutions at Antioch and Rome and elsewhere are her monuments. She has ever been an important factor in the intellectual, artistic and sclentific development of the human race. There are few chapters more inspiring than the hitsory of the monks, those holy men of Ireland who day and night worked assidiously in their monas- terles to preserve the treasures of art and literature. They copied and wrote new treatises on medicine, mathema- tics and natural sclence and to their untiring efforts must be _attributed much of the knowledge of today. The Catholic church has establish- ed a splendid system of _parochial schools, the concrete embodiment of all the high ideals for which the Church has stood through the cen- turnes for true education, _touching heart and mind and will. = The paro- chial school scholdren in the secular branches get just as good instruction as in any school in the country. But what doth it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul? Education is more than in- struction, more than acquisition of knowledge. It is a preparation to live well, and thus the scope of the church’s eiucational missios is to fit men for a useful life on earth and for a blessed life hereafter in heaven. The Catholic school system in this country is one of the greatest assets the country has: it is doing an enormous work for go0d_sound citizenship and strong and sturdy Christian manhood and wo- manhood and the schools - deserve praise and help. By reason of the change in the school from nine grades to eight this year, the class was in two divisions and honors_were so divided.

Desiring to resign, and admitting he had intimated to the trustees that he would resign, the Rev. Dr. Flavel S. Luther, a native of Brooklyn Conn. president of Trinity college has receiv- ed a year's leave of absence. Dr. Lu- ther is suffering from overwork. He says he is tired out and that he wants to get away and forget his work for a period long enough to enable him to regain his health. Prof. Henry A. | Perkins of the department of physics will be acting president of the college during the absence of Dr. Luther. 1t is learned, sasy a correspondent of the New York Herald, that the trus- teed made it plain for Dr. Luther that they would not consider his resigna- tion. They ridiculed his protestations that his vitality had been sapped to the desree that he was in danger of qualifying for the superannunated class of college presidents, and they unanimously voted to give him a year in which to come back. It will be the first vacation Dr. Luther has had in many years. During his two recent terms as a member of the state senate Dr. Luther certainly showed no abate- ment of. his mental and physical vigor. There were politicians who wished he might do so at times. Motoroyclists Tried the Track, In preparaation for their coming races, a_number of motorcyclists were at the fairgrounds on Sunday to try out the track and their machines, and there was a small crowd watching their performances. Wild Bill Bur- dick had a new machine which he was getting into smcoth running condi- tion and Walter Chappell was also testing out another new one.
